Am I the only person who has problem with video playback ?

I'm having problems with the latest nvidia driver and it seems that nobody wrote about it on the forums.. After installing the latest nvidia driver (169.07-1), the video playback with xv selected will be played in purple and blue colours.. Generally red will not be shown.. So human faces are colored with a combination of purple and blue.. Everything is normal on the other hand.. Sound works perfectly, the movie can be watched smoothly even on fullscreen.. With x11, all players can show the colors but...

1) The movie quality in Totem is very bad then...like the image is gathered together by 3x3 pixels..

2) mplayer shows everything fine but it can't get fullscreen..

I created a nautilus script for a workaround that let's me watch the movies with fullscreen using the -fs -zoom options..

But this problem is really annoying.. sad

Re: Am I the only person who has problem with video playback ?

that might be because of that you're not using testing repository..?

Re: Am I the only person who has problem with video playback ?

169.07 is from testing.
I tried it and everything worked fine here (8800gts), except for slight problem with fan speed, as mentioned in another thread.
Currently i use 169.04 driver (from AUR) which doesn't have that problem.

Re: Am I the only person who has problem with video playback ?

pffff sad this is really annoying.. which version of mplayer are you using ?

I just installed the SVN version of mplayer:

[12:37] (tunix@penguix ~)$ pacman -Qs mplayer
local/mplayer-plugin 3.50-1
    mplayerplug-in is a browser plugin that uses mplayer to play videos from websites.
local/mplayer-skins 0.2-1
    Additional Skins for the MPlayer
local/mplayer-svn 25449-1
    A movie player for linux

This is the output of xvinfo (can you please post yours ?):

I should probably also mention that I'm rolling my own kernel, and as such I'm not using the package from testing. Building it manually with the PKGBUILD from ABS though so it shouldn't be any difference though.

Re: Am I the only person who has problem with video playback ?

Why aren't you using DRI by the way ? Isn't it a good thing that makes your DE faster ?

Re: Am I the only person who has problem with video playback ?

You're not supposed to use DRI when using the nvidia drivers, can't remember why though, the drivers should provide direct rendering anyway.
